file_exists(php) for c++?
Not in the standard library.
Look into the boost filesystem library (www.boost.org). It is free and works on a few different platforms. If you only need this to work on one platform use that platform''s methods (win32 api or posix standard).

Is there an equivalent function to file_exists(php) for c++.
-CProgrammer
fopen can be used to see if a file exists (try to open it read only)

Yeah that would work, but I''m using STL(std::ifstream) and it''d be a bit weird to open with fopen then close and open again.

Your using std::ifstream aye?
just call open on your ifstream making sure you only have input caps on (ifstream will default to read only which will work i believe), and then check the open and good flags using is_open() and good() respectively.
i think that''ll work anyway
